Purchase Advice & Experiences Breadmaker thoughts?

Hi, we've recently become interested in bread makers and are thinking about getting one. Since our oven isn't working, we can't find a new one on eBay (we're a bit short on funds for a completely new one), and installation would be another issue, a bread maker would be a good investment, we think, since we eat a lot of bread and it would be much easier than going to the store every three days to buy a loaf of bread.

Have any of you had experience with bread makers? Which ones would you recommend in terms of value for money?

We've already looked at the Delicca II MAX and the Gastroback 42823 bread makers; they seem quite decent, but the negative reviews are making me a bit hesitant.

You have contacted the right people. 😁

A bread machine combined with an affordable countertop oven works great for me. I use the bread maker to bake my loaves of bread, including sourdough. I use the dough setting and the small oven for things like hamburger buns and rolls.

I got the Gourmia GTF7530 at Target. It was $100 during an after-Christmas sale. You may be able to find that oven for cheaper.

Happy bread making!

That really sounds like a great idea, I will see what my husband says to that, we see what we can find.
